Ender Inciarte worked on his baserunning and defensive range this offseason with speed coach Tom Shaw.

Inciarte had a career year in many ways in 2017, slashing .304/.350/.409 over a league-leading 662 at-bats while earning his first National League All-Star nod and second Gold Glove, but he feels he can do better than the 22 stolen bases he tallied in 31 attempts. The 27-year-old center fielder carries intriguing fantasy upside as the locked-in leadoff man in a young Braves lineup that should get better and better as the 2018 season goes along. Feb 14 - 8:41 AM

All three hits were singles. The Braves weren't able to get anything going against Nick Pivetta, but Inciarte appeared to have his timing pretty well. With those three hits, Inciarte now has a .307/.351/.413 line on the season. Assuming he's not dealt, he likely is an everyday player again for Atlanta next season. Sun, Sep 24, 2017 05:15:00 PM
